San Francisco Soda Bread: Bread

Servings: 24

Prep time:10-15 min.

Ingredients:

  • 5 cups flour

  • 1 cup sugar

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, unsalted (at room temperature & cut into cubes)

  • 2 1/4 cups raisins

  • 3 1/4 tablespoons caraway seeds

  • 2 1/2 cups buttermilk

Step 1:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter generously three medium loaf pans. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda in large bowl. Add butter; using your fingertips, rub until coarse crumbs are formed. Add raisins and caraway seeds; stir to mix. Set aside.

Step 2:

In a separate bowl with a fork, mix buttermilk and egg. Fold this into the dough, mixing only until well mixed. The dough is now very sticky.

Step 3:

Divide the dough between the three buttered medium loaf pans, filling 2/3 full. Bake for approximately 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely. Remove from pans.

Step 4:

Store tightly wrapped in aluminum foil at room temperature. Can be frozen after it has cooled. Warm before serving.

Step 5:

Comments: The contrast of flavors of the raisins and caraway seeds in this special soda bread is tantalizing. The aroma from the freshly baked or warmed up bread is wonderful.
